No. More cynically, Chelsea know the buy-out clauses. If he's not a world-class striker, or a bit shit, we're stuck with him. If he he is a world-class striker, Chelsea get him.

That is true with or without contractual agreements.
If he's shit we are stuck with him..if he is really good a big team will buy him.
It's all the same existential nightmare that ends only in death and quietude.
He's our player (TBC) why wouldn't he?
It seems strange that his club and representatives are all indicating it's a done deal and posing for pictures at the training ground etc. and LCFC are not.
It is not normally officially announced in any way until 100% done deal.
I hope the player's agent is not playing for a better deal elsewhere.

Why does he need a work permit, isn't Croatia in the EU?

Some members of the EU still need work permits in the UK. Croatia is one of them.

That would explain why there aren't any Croatian hand car washes around here then!

Potentially we've spunked away a few weeks of negotiations on a player who can't sign.

The suggestions of an arrangement with Chelsea raise the question. Of course these arrangements can't be official, but we'll see if he picks up a 'knock' the game before.
I love a good conspiracy theory.

Leicester have reached agreement with Croatian side Rijeka and agreed personal terms with Andrej Kramaric, but according to Sky sources there is some concern he may not meet the necessary criteria to secure a work permit.
The work permit hearing is scheduled for next week, so Kramaric will not be available to face Aston Villa this weekend

Shame, I could do with a shop selling croatian meat and alcohol goods opening up near me.

The only reason this would be even remotely possible would be if we've got a quality centre-half or two on the way, in which case - good news.
